In June, I spent a gorgeous Friday in Southampton with 50 other bloggers and the fabulous C. Wonder team. On that trip, they challenged us all to a contest. Whoever posted the best Instagram of the day won a $1000 gift card to C. Wonder. The winning Instagram was this photo taken by yours truly.
I can’t even begin to explain how exciting it is to win $1000 to one of your favorite stores. I was so giddy when I found out that I jumped out of my seat at work!
Last weekend, I passed by the Soho flagship, popped in for a browse, and ended up leaving with $1000 (ok $1048) worth of incredible merchandise. I thought a lot about buying myself something nice and saving the rest for when I needed a new bowl or shirt but then I said eff it, when do I get to treat myself like this. Never! The people working there had so much fun with me. The entire staff was following me around, watching what I picked and cheering for the pieces that they liked.
I bought everything pictured above plus some! I’ve had my eye on this navy and white salad bowl for quite some time and when I saw one of the C. Wonder PR girls in these camel-printed slouchy pants, I knew I had to have them.
I wore this hot pink dress to North River Lobster Company for date night last Saturday.
And this shirt to work on Monday…
And of course, everyone we know is invited over for cocktail hour with these gold striped high balls and tumblers!
What would you do if you won $1000 to one of your favorite stores? Would you drop it all in one shot or save it for when you needed something?
